Camden

Dad sits on the cream-white sofa
"Hey kids, you know we still love you, but
"We can't make you understand"

Mum cries, but she never looks over
I know I'm seven years older, but
my brother's holding my hand

And now it's one year
And we still haven't sold the house
They don't even speak to each other now
Hard to believe what they used to have

But I saw a picture of the house in Camden
Mum was in the kitchеn, dad holding her hand
And if someone could tеll them how it was gonna happen
Would they try to fix it? Would they do it again?

I wanna go back to Camden
I wanna go back to Camden
Back to Arlington Road, forever ago, before the paint cracked
Can we go back? Can we go back?

I sit on my bed, not sober
"For Sale" sign in the drive kicked over
But I don't feel any better

And now it's one year
And we still haven't sold the house
They don't even speak to each other now
Hard to believe what they used to have

But I saw a picture of the house in Camden
Mum was in the kitchen, dad holding her hand
And if someone could tell them how it was gonna happen
Would they try to fix it? Would they do it again?

I wanna go back to Camden
I wanna go back to Camden
Back to Arlington Road, forever ago, before the paint cracked
Can we go back? Can we go back to Camden?

I wanna go back to Camden
Back to Arlington Road, forever ago
Before the paint cracked
Can we go back? Can we go back?

'Cause you're gonna have a daughter and when she gets older
You'll forget how to talk, sleep in separate rooms
And the home you built together will slowly fall apart
And then, you'll come to hate who you loved at the start

Ooh-ooh-ooh (I wanna go back to Camden)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (I wanna go back to Camden)
Ooh-ooh-ooh (I wanna go back to Camden)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (can we go back, can we go back?)
